Professor Michael Greenberger

Vallejo Times Herald (CA) – According to a Las Vegas Review-Journal report, the U.S. Homeland Security Department recently downgraded Las Vegas’ status as a potential terrorist target because it relied on inaccurate data. Michael Greenberger, JD, professor at the School of Law and director of the Center for Health and Homeland Security, said the mistakes in the Las Vegas data should raise concerns about the accuracy of other Homeland Security Department information.

The Washington Post – Political observers say the politics of race in Maryland goes something like this: When one white candidate in the Democratic primary for governor picks a black running mate, as Baltimore Mayor Martin O’Malley did in December, another white candidate must pick one too, as Montgomery County Executive Doug Duncan did last week. "I suspect that O’Malley’s decision [to choose a black running mate] was a combination of race and geography," said Larry Gibson, LLB, professor at the School of Law. "He needed someone in Prince George’s to firm up what he may have in Baltimore. But when O’Malley made that move, then Duncan’s choice was no longer whether to pick a black running mate, but which one to choose."

The Baltimore Sun – Convicted sniper John Muhammad, who is already on death row in Virginia, now goes on trial in Maryland for six counts of murder. "Crime sprees do not affect so many people so profoundly, but terrorism’s randomness does," said Michael Greenberger, JD, professor at the School of Law and director of the Center for Health and Homeland Security.
